Summary

Pulmonary rehabilitation is a key element in the management of people with chronic respiratory disease. A properly followed supervised physical training program in sarcoidosis is safe and has no absolute contraindications. Fatigue can also be associated with sarcoidosis for different reasons. Individualized rehabilitation training can improve the symptoms of patients with sarcoidosis. There is no study in the literature investigating the effectiveness of one-legged exercises that reduce peripheral muscle use, in patients with sarcoidosis. In our study, these two exercise methods will be compared by applying one-legged exercise training and two-legged exercise training. The effect of one-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in sarcoidosis patients will be examined. The primary aim of our study is to compare the effects of one-legged exercise training, which is a current exercise approach, and two-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in patients with sarcoidosis. The secondary aim is to examine the effect of this exercise training on peripheral muscle strength and quality of life parameters.

Conditions

  • Pulmonary Sarcoidosis

Interventions

OTHER

Exercise- One-Legged

The exercise program consisted of a 5-minute warm-up, followed by 10 minutes of cycling for each leg during the first 2 weeks, increasing to 15 minutes for each leg in the subsequent weeks (with a 5-10 minute rest period between switching legs), and concluded with a 5-minute cool-down period. During the exercise, the inactive leg was kept stationary and in contact with the ground . In the one-legged cycling exercise training, whether patients started with the dominant or non-dominant leg was determined randomly

OTHER

Exercise-Two-Legged

The exercise program consisted of a 5-minute warm-up, followed by 20 minutes of cycling during the first 2 weeks, increasing to 30 minutes in the subsequent weeks, and concluded with a 5-minute cool-down period.
